Recovery.gov went live shortly after President Obama signed the Recovery Act into law on Feb. 17, 2009. Given its primary mandate – to allow taxpayers to see precisely what entities receive Recovery money in addition to how and where the money is spent – the site displays easy-to-understand, user-friendly graphs, charts, and maps. These tools, which the site continues to enhance and refine, offer both telescopic and microscopic views of Recovery spending and projects across the country, from a larger national overview down to details of individual projects in specific zip codes. The site also provides an online way for reporting any suspected fraud, waste or abuse related to Recovery funding and projects.
For the money they spent to redesign the site, you bet it should look amazing. $18 million!!! It was big news back in July ‘09…
For $18.000.000 they could have blocked core.js from loading.. thats an unnecessary 265k download. Amateurs ![]()
Nice site though.
One Hell of a Sharepoint Site! What is surprising about this nice site is that belongs to a governmental agency. I bet they hired someone to create it. Who is it? It will be nice for them to take the credit.
